BUYER'S GUIDE

for acceptance or rejection. The convention vote determines the final action on recommendations.

The business of the convention is conducted by delegates representing the clubs and the general member- ship; namely, one delegate for every 5O members, or fraction thereof. All members of Hoo-Hoo are welcome and encouraged to attend our convention.

On the fun side of our convention, we have plenty of that also, particularly at our next convention, in San Francisco. Usually one of the outstanding speakers in the nation will address us at a mixed luncheon with the ladies. And a dinner show that surpasses anything, as the best talent possible is obtained, regardless of cost.

Many Hoo-Hoo Clubs pay the expense of one or more delegates; however, it should be a must for every club to send its incoming president to the convention. This would make a better united Hoo-Hoo, and would give good men an incentive to become president of their club. How to finance such an undertaking, can be worked out easily by various types o{ beneficial meetings or parties. Each club should build up a special fund, to be used only to send its incoming president to the next convention.

"Health, Hapoiness and Long Life" was chosen as the motto of our Ordbr, whose princlpa.l purpose was declared to be the promotion of these benefits, through a spirit oi brotherhood and fraternal association.

To put The Golden Rule to govern our life and business activities-that is an ideal to which Hoo-Hoo subscribes. Its Code of Ethics is the essence of these fundamentals. Its slogan, "Through Hoo-Hoo a United Lutnber Industry," affects its principles, aims and objectives.

The Hoo-Hoo Code of Ethics is older than that of any service club. It contains the Nine aims and objectives, to encourag€ friendly relations, confidence and cooperation among lumbermen, and to foster all activities that benefit the lumber industry and humanity.

At this time, we have approximately 13,000 active Hoo-ffoo members in 106 active clubs throughout the USA and Canada. Yes, also in Hawaii and the philippine Islands. Our membersh.ip contains: approximately 48o/o Retailers, 300/6 Manufacturers, l|o/s Wholesalers and 4o/o Associations.

It is our desire to have top management as Hoo-Hoo members and active in club activities. If we. accomplish this, it would not be hard to have the man that works behind the counters also active. To help accomplish this I have drafted a letter to "top management', to ask for their assistance and cooperation, in helping to build HooHoo for a better and united lumber industry. Should vou
